Actually it is two machines, Popeye and Golden Samurai (the Sammy ones with the LCD monitor surrounding the reels) that have the exact same symptoms. I had an arcade party and they (as always) got tons of play. After several hours of use both machines developed the same symptoms. I have had these machines for years and never seen this problem, the only other problem I have ever had is needing to do a reset after not being powered on for several weeks.


SYMPTOMS:

-The LED displays 00 and 00 for credit and win
-The only LED indicator lit is MEDALS IN
-Attract mode is up and running
-Reel stop buttons are all red
-Coins go through with no sound or other response
-Bet switches do not produce any response


TRIED: Reset procedure, it behaves normally but does not return the game to operation, setting the odds works normally as well
Inspected coin mech for jams, nothing, when the mech flap is lifted the screen displays a CP message which clears when the flap is closed and the door key is turned to the Left
